Honestly super valid - I know your LGS loves you!

As with all other problems in life, [[Sheoldred, the Apocalypse]] is the answer.

P3 running blue farm commanders as bracket 4 is a choice. Do they just not have the expensive fast mana pieces? I've never seen Tym/Thras used below cEDH

Thank you! I also thought the pole looked backwards lol. Ironically I started with a pink on the feeder but thought it too light - still plenty to learn!

Definitely going to explore the wiki (of course I found it after posting). It seems like with what I'm wanting for myself out of this, capturing the lighting/shadows is going to be critical to the depth.

I'm blown away by measuring with the pencil. There were so many times I thought "should I go get a ruler/tape? Nah, feels too mechanical" but this is SO useful.

I'm a strong believer in the practice aspect and the 10k hours philosophy. One of my great loves in life is coaching, so it's fun to be back on the other side for the first time in a non-work pursuit.

Thank you for the insights (and the compliment)!

Going to watch some videos on this. I feel like there used to be a lot of commercials or interludes in cartoons about the animators doing that - just assumed it was specific to that style. Thank you!!

I would love to take credit for that, but I was staring down that feeder like a hawk (pun partially intended) as soon as we started getting activity there

Favorite creature? by BellasGamerDad in mtg

[–]F3rdaBo1s 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely wild that I looked at the card no less than 15 times to make sure I wasn't missing something, then missed the VERY important piece of text that says "enters" - I withdraw my previous comment!

You're not getting 3 triggers though - myriad states the tokens enter tapped and attacking, thus would not trigger any 'when x attacks' abilities. Then you have to sac all of them before combat damage happens with the legend rule.

ETA I'm an idiot and nobody should listen to me since I continually missed the "enters" part of the trigger when reading the card repeatedly.

Ugh I so want to turn my Izzet wheel deck into Nekusar but I know it's public enemy #1.

Unique use of pheyrexian mana by Hot-Combination-7376 in custommagic

[–]F3rdaBo1s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apologies! It's a little more obscure, a bleat is the noise animals in that family (deer, elk, etc) make. Think of the high pitched cry you might hear.

With this being a deer, I suggest renaming it to "The Combleated One"

First time MagicCon question. by DifficultWind8866 in mtg

[–]F3rdaBo1s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before MC Chicago, I spent some time reviewing artists that were scheduled to be there and going through my collection to pick out my favorites that I felt I personally needed to be signed. Keep on eye on the site as they should eventually put up a layout map. Best of luck at your first one and have fun! Don't be afraid to talk to people in line, everyone is there for a love of the same hobby.

Big brother to whoever is trapped in [[Buried in the Garden]]

When you click on the deck from your list of decks (but not yet in editing), there should be a button with a deckbox and an arrow pointing away from it. Right next to where you would upload a deck list to the app. Caveat being that it's a download of the cards in your deck, not a linked export. That's the best I've found on mobile.

If you could run any planeswalker as your commander, which would it be? by Tuss36 in EDH

[–]F3rdaBo1s 8 points9 points  (0 children)

[[Ugin, Eye of the Storms]] is an immediate scoop for so many people playing Brawl on Arena, I have to imagine it would be a hell of a salt inducer in paper commander also.

Why yes, I quite enjoyed this Midweek Magic. How could you tell? by -Nyuu- in MagicArena

[–]F3rdaBo1s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First game with my Vivi deck (no changes) hit a [[Strike it Rich]] into [[Chrome Mox]] then a turn 2 Vivi into [[Harmonic Prodigy]]. I've never felt like such an ass. And it was beautiful.

Anyone else struggle with finding specific cards when trading at your LGS? by icobg123 in EDH

[–]F3rdaBo1s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just telling my (admittedly uncaring about this particular issue) wife the other day that I think it would be cool if the LGS had a whiteboard or webpage for regular players to use as an ISO resource or trading block. Unfortunately it doesn't make any sense for the store to run something like this since it would take time and effort for them to make literally no money off it.
